package-install-file fails #38

Closed DavidBiesack closed 8 years ago

DavidBiesack commented 8 years ago

I tried the Installation step after downloading and saving the file.

The installation instructions are wrong (M-x package-install-from-file should be M-x package-install-file)

After running M-x package-install-file, I got an error:

package-buffer-info: Package lacks a "Version" or "Package-Version" header

M-x emacs-version reports:

GNU Emacs 24.5.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0, NS apple-appkit-1265.21) of 2015-04-10 on builder10-9.porkrind.org

BTW, my copy of the file does contain

Thanks David: 5e80a41 should fix that.

Thanks. The installation instructions in README are still wrong (M-x package-install-from-file should be M-x package-install-file)

purcell commented 8 years ago

Fixed, thanks.

DavidBiesack commented 8 years ago

doc looks good.

package-install-file now works correctly. Thanks

Maybe you could make a release for this commit? I notice that the latest release was on Oct 7, 2015.

Thanks!

Done. Thanks for the reminder.
